Formerly known as Royalton CBD, the wildly popular and rebranded Tribal Balance offers one of the area’s largest assortments of CBD products
By Patricia Nugent
One of the first retailers to research, curate and introduce best-in-industry CBD products to Cleveland, Rob Berg has rebranded and changed his store name from Royalton CBD to Tribal Balance.
“It’s a great fit with me, being from a close-knit Polish family, we see ourselves as a tribe,” he says. “And balance is at the core of everything I sell, geared to help people find the best path to recalibrate their well-being.”
Rob has been passionate about CBD products since they changed his life and helped his anxiety several years ago.
“I’ve tried everything we offer,” he says. “Educating people is my specialty, showing them the difference between good-better-best and finding the right product to fit their needs.”
Over the years, a growing body of research has pointed to CBD’s ability to soothe aching muscles and joints, improve cardiovascular health and lessen inflammation, migraines, depression and anxiety, just to name a few.
Adios Stress and Sleepless Nights
“I would say about 70% of our clients come here looking for solutions for sleep or anxiety,” he says.
Rob reports that CBN is an effective cannabinoid with ultra-relaxing effects.
“Like CBD, CBN works with the body’s natural endocannabinoid system to support balance,” says Rob. “Habit High Spectrum Sleepy Time Gummies with hemp-derived CBN is one of my most popular sleep aids.”
Two other trending supplements are melatonin and magnesium, which help with sleep and mood.
“About 15% of people are magnesium deficient,” he says.
Nitrogreens
Rob says he’s partnered with Biotics Research and its products will soon be available from the Tribal Balance website.
“Nitrogreens is an all-natural, non-GMO, gluten-free and no-sugar-added powder that’s loaded with spinach, kale, carrots, beets and barley,” he says. “Just a scoop is equivalent to eating 12 salads. I’ve noticed improved mood and focus since taking it.”
Hydrolyzed Collagen Protein, also from Biotics, is a nutritious, dairy-free protein powder that’s derived from bone broth, so Rob says it’s great for those sensitive to dairy, yet still provides all the bone- and muscle-building benefits.
Tribal Balance is also the name of three of his new product lines, which include whipped CBD body butter, Full Spectrum CBD Oil and Be Chill roll-on.
In addition to people, Rob is happy to help four-legged friends, too.
“Founded by dog lovers who wanted to ease their pups’ pain and anxiety through holistic healing, a line called Dope Dogs includes Crunchies, Munchies and CBD oils,” he says.
A Natural Alternative to Alcohol
Rob says that many of his clients come to him looking for a natural alternative to alcohol.
“It seems like during the pandemic, people started drinking too much and saw what a negative effect that can have on your health and wellness,” he says. “Now they’re taking a step back and want to stop. I have several products that gently induce a feeling of euphoria that would make a great substitute for alcohol. Kava, which is made from a pepper plant from the Pacific islands, is an effective natural muscle relaxer.”
This month Rob is introducing a line of Kava seltzers in fruity flavors like raspberry-hibiscus, blackberry-orange, blueberry-chamomile and tangoberry.
